BIKT agreement

Submitted by admin on Wed, 12/16/2015 - 15:37

SIDI and Inera have agreed on cooperation to produce the database BIKT (from the Swedish "Biverkningsöversikt" = Summary of adverse effects).
BIKT is a dataset containing information about undesirable adverse effects of medicinal drugs in the Swedish market. BIKT covers at this moment about 50% of all medicinal drugs in the Swedish market and the ambition in the agreement is to constantly increase this figure all the time.
SIDI is going to deliver an updated and quality assured database once a month to be integrated in the Sil database from Inera. The Sil database is used for decision support in the drug's prescription modules in the majority of the EHR systems in Sweden.
